Gate D Superrace :rolleyes:

 

Question, if someone's paying music on a decent speaker in the queue is that annoying or welcomed? 

 

Never brought a speaker but my car radio is fucked so will have one.

Overnight I would imagine you will get a very mixed response.

Suppose it depends on what music ha, someone was playing music on a speaker before in the queue and they had a pretty awful tastes. Everyone booed/chanted at him and he turned it off after a while.

We're aiming to be camped up in south park. Which means entry via pgD (fingers crossed). now I know you cant decide where to park....But. What is the best way to drive to hopefully ensure you end up on the west side for parking. Were coming from the north (Sheffield).

 

Any help please?

probably annoying as everyone's taste in music is atrocious, apart from mine obviously :lol:

Worthy FM would probably be the most welcome thing if putting something on.

So are we actually going to have to stay in the cara overnight? I'm planning to anyway after last year's horror but I'm wondering when we'll be allowed to get up and start queuing, I'm thinking about 6am.

Not sure if you are CV or car.

But, car arrivers are already quing at the gates.

So, 'stay in your car's is bollocks

      Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!

      Travelling to and from the site on a day ticket

      By TheFellaLondon · Posted

      Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By pipan · Posted

      I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.

      Visiting the site outside the festival

      By phil the shrew · Posted

      After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
